Galata, 2.6 km from Palace of the Porphyrogenitus

"I moved to Hotel MOLA Galata after a few days in a less than stellar hotel in Sultanahmet. It was a welcome change. The room was clean and comfortable. It is in a business district so there is activity and noise during the day. There’s lots of local options for food nearby, including just across the alley for the best breakfast I had during my time in Istanbul. One night I also took my doner up to the roof and enjoyed an unbeatable dinner view at sunset."

Top Palace of the Porphyrogenitus Hotel Reviews

The Marmara Taksim

8/10 Good

"Small rooms and high prices..."

Swissotel The Bosphorus Istanbul

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience"

The Wings Hotels Pera

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel had a great boutique vibe. It was in a great location. Staff were friendly and helpful. The King Size bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was nice and clean. Great value….Recommend it highly"

Rixos Tersane Istanbul

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is beautiful. The design is stunning. My room was great, but it looked like someone had kicked in the door at some point. It’s still locked, but you could see where the wood was blown out. The breakfast is beautiful and amazing."

Eresin Hotels Topkapi

10/10 Excellent

"Tram stop in front of the hotel and many close bus stops making it a great location"

Pera Palace Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is a beautiful, historical landmark located in a great part of town. I was underwhelmed with the level of service. We were given a room on the first floor knowing there would be a huge wedding that night with music blasting until very late at night. We enquired about a scale and they said there was one in the room which was incorrect. They told us they’d send one but it never happened. We had to go back and ask for one ourselves and the attitude seemed to be of annoyance. We asked for a calf-hour late checkout and were told…NO! We were initially excited to stay in such a beautiful place but were very turned off by the service level."

Dosso Dossi Hotels & SPA Golden Horn

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in a sea view King room for a week in September 2026. The view was exceptional and room was relatively spacious, clean and comfy compared to other Istanbul's hotels. The bed was a real king size. The room service was pretty much all day available and we could refill anything we needed, the quality of Hygiene products were too low though. The cleaning staff were friendly and helpful as well as one of the receptions named "Ihan" or "Irhan"?. Other receptions were not friendly at all! The breakfast was amazing and we enjoyed having it in the patio. The hotel location was pretty good and close to bus stop, many restaurants and grocery stores etc. In overall it is worth the money!"

Ottoman's Life Hotel Deluxe

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed my stay very much. The staff was attentive and polite. I had the deluxe Turkish bath at the on site hammam and it was amazing. The massage therapist treated me like a queen. Both nights I had dinner at the restaurant and enjoyed the food. The breakfast buffet had what seemed like an unlimited selection of breads, cheeses, fruits. There was also hot foods that were different both days. I will definitely return the next time I visit Istanbul."

Aliée Istanbul - A Paris Society Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is gorgeous.. every detail is so aesthetic. The room, the bathroom, the pool, the spa area - everything was beyond beautiful. The service is top-notch. The breakfast was the best ever. I would love to be back one day. 100 out of 10, exceed expectations!"
